Gareon also hosts 3 day Equine Assisted Therapy Retreats. These retreats include; mindfulness and relaxation, organic meals, Professional Therapuetic Massage and Equine Assisted Therapy Sessions. EAT is a powerful and very profound way to experience a journey home to self. Horses have so much to teach us about being human and they will respond to the thoughts and feelings of the humans in their presence. By learning the language of horse (a body language) an experienced therapist can facilitate a session that interprets the subtle inner workings of human behaviour, which is being powerfully expressed in the behaviour of the horse. In this way the horse becomes a mirror for the clients internal dialogue. "These deeply profound experiences, are life changing for clients and I am constantly humbled by the transformation that becomes available in the presence of these majestic beings." Gareon K Manler Please express interest in the Equine Retreats via your booking message.
